In a shocking discovery, biologists discover dragons! Dragon geneticists determine that flame eyes (F) are dominant to blue eyes (f) and burbling (B) is dominant to whistling (b). They suspect that the two genes are linked in one of the autosomes. They mate a true-breeding, flame-eyed, burbling female with a true-breeding, blue-eyed, whistling male. They then mate a pair of offspring. Please draw punnet square to support your explanation Part One: Assuming dragon genetics follows the same rules as fruit flies, what ratio of genotypes would you expect if the genes were not linked? (Remember you are crossing FfBb x FFB6).

Mitochondrial Mutations

A mitochondrion is a cellular organelle that serves as the site for cellular respiration and energy production (ATP or Adenosine Triphosphate). It is a double-membrane-bound organelle and is only present in eukaryotic cells.
